GAA Weekend 6th/7th July

GAAScoreUpdates ‏@LiveGAAScore 1m
Roscommon and Tyrone are level at half time. The Rossies are playing 15men behind the ball and frustrating the Tyrone forwards. I-02 to 0-05

I see Paul Murphy is starting mind games from Cody?

YES...himself and Jackie will be lettin fly for sure.

Shefflin back!

Bench

I would'nt be lumping into KK at 10/7 on here,a slow start is possible too..Hope to get on in running for a score or two, on either side really.

Paul Curran out injured for Tipp - big loss that

KK at 5/6

A red card to b shown 5/4

gl

Jaysus thats a shockin wide from there

KK there for the taking but Tipps half forward line has been shocking, have nt won a ball all the first half!

both sets of backs well on top.

Yes KK worked to hard, have to think Tipp will have ther 10 minutes. Need to get half forwards going..

so hard

I think Tipp need it in fast and wide, on the chest or lower.

Anymore 1.12 pls....jubbly

Aye the 1.12 backer was in v early! 10 mins left and a goal in it only

How many brainless frees do Tipp plan on giving away?

Shocking lack of effort from their forwards too.

Interestin to see free and wide count after the game!

Some sterling performances for cats...Maloney was good.

Long live the King...l o l

Cant beat match fitness and desire..

Poor match, Tipp were awful in the second half, no heart and gave away countless silly frees. Kilkenny a shadow of their former selves still.

Limerick, Cork, Galway, Dublin Cork and Clare will not fear Kilkenny if they meet them.

Limerick will win the All Ireland this year, hungriest team i have seen and decent depth now.

Apart from the first 5 minutes of the 2nd half Kilkenny dominated it was their own profligacy that kept Tipp in it.

How Larkin got man of the match ahead of Brian Hogan I simply don't know, Hogan was immense?

bit of a joke that Down who beat Derry in Celtic Park a few weeks back in the Ulster, get drawn to play them again in the qualifiers at the same venue. Down should have had home advantage

Shocking, absolutely shocking kicking from Cork and Kerry.

Carney trying to make a garbage game sound like an artistic session of beauty, painful to listen to.

Was men against boys there in the 1st half - Kerry  winning every kick out and forwards well on top

jesus where do they get them refs from

Brain dead decision by ref there re Cooper . Hope thats not what is going to be relevant in this match .

Sligo.........an awful ref.

is yer man coldrick getting matche sat all?hes the only decent one i seen in last few yrs

Coldrick is getting a good few games........very good referee.

G

Comeback on

What do ye think about the total points in the Dublin Vs Galway game, a bit high at 43.5, might lay it?

Sun starting to break through here in Dublin, going to be a very warm in Croker.

John Mc Caffrey is 1/2 with Powers to score today (6/4 not to), he is evens with Ladbrokes to score from play.

Depends what Galway turn up Goalhanger imo - impossible to know with them

Could score 5 goals or could get none!

True mate, may just leave it. 1-20 would win most games though so not sure if the total is right, could be 35 or 55 with Galway as you said BJG.

Backed Dublin, think this is a coin toss.

Open feel already, happy i left the points bet.

Cracking display from Dublin. Absolutely clinical picking off scores

Brilliant stuff from Dublin so far

Game could b over at ht at this rate

Dublin +8...1.8...THANK YOU SO MUCH..

AWFUL HURLING....AWFUL....DIRE..

Obviously the win against Laois was nt a below par effort and was their form! Were v lucky laois ran out of steam the last 10 mins as Galway were under massive pressure

LAOIS......LAOIS......you dont win titles beating Laois....

They have'nt played a proper match since April. You cant just roll up to Croker and expect to beat a well trained match fit side....even if they arent great, it's a bit up from Laois.

And yes i had the 9/4 and 5/2....to be honest, i thought the world had gone mad.

ht

Would even be tempted to go back in at the 1/5 left up. Galway are atrocious.

Best performance I have seen in many years. Simply sublime from Dublin. Hungry, clinical ALL ROUND SUPERB

Joe, great performance but Galway would be better off putting out their camogie side.

Joe...you didnt see them get murdered in Thurles by Tipp then...which has done them a huge favour...

Good goal JC, you took 7 steps without playing the ball though.

Hon Galway, 1.05 big trade !

No team will fear any of these 2.......Galway never turned up.

Dubs have one Hawkeye challenge left.....l o l


Much better second half...

ok i was bit ott but their attitude is unreal. pure hunger

True Joe...they are very fit...are up for it...and now have a squad...and some leaders with a little more experience now...

No one will relish the task in Croker against them....Yes they are a little short on hurling..in areas...

Keep saying it winner of Munster final will win the All Ireland, think Limerick are the team to beat, whether that be through the quarters or the semi.

Could be so.....we will have to wait and see.....I wont be writing of the cats mtself just yet..

Theres been a man missing in Dublin since 1961...........but hes been found now and his name is Bob O'Keeffe


GO ON YA GUD THINGS

Daly is a refreshing change,great interview there "We'll Knock a bit of crack out of it anyway Joanne"

Waterford vs Kilkenny confirmed for Semple Stadium next Saturday at 7pm. Clare vs Wexford the curtain raiser at 5pm. #GAA

there is something special about fitzgerald stadium on a sunny sunday afternoon in a kerry cork munster final.the pitch is in the middle of the town and u can feel the buzz from early morning.the kerry people have a great way about them with a great sense of humour.magic!

Kerry for the all Ireland if they can get their kicking boots on, Kildare made Dublin look an awful lot better than they are, that goal before ht sent Kildare into a total mental breakdown, while Dublin should beat Meath comfortably I can see Meath giving them a game for long periods.

have another gargle sil and keep stum.

Believe me Kingrock Kerry will have a huge say in how Sam ends up.

Well they could have beaten Donegal last year and they pissed one away against the Dubs. Moving Cooper to centre forward has made a huge difference.

Played some great stuff first half yesterday neill but missed an absolute bucket full which is not like Kerry, but on another day with their shooting boots on Cork would've been history.

Silver

Dublin made Kildare look like trees...not the other way round! Dublin the team to beat this year, playing nice football and very easy on the eye

Didn't see it but heard from a pal at it that the full forward line functioned really well, all pace and movement. They had been playing in too many high straight balls on top of Donaghy for the last couple of years.

goretski with nearly 37 mins on the clock there was only 2 points betweem Kildare and Dublin with Kildare enjoying plenty of ball but once that goal before half time went in I put my head in my hands I knew what was going to happen next.

Don't get me wrong dublin are a really good side but not as good as they looked against a Kildare team who had lost it mentally again?

cork have talented players(propper footballers,big and have all the skills) but they have a dense manager that will not get the best out of them and even at that i dont think they are good enough imo.as for kerry?i just dont know.they had cork by the throat and were not clinical enough to kill them.for an ageing team they have found only 2 top players and have  2 on the bench and thats it.but when they are allowed time and space they still have it.cooper gave an exhipbition of how the centre half forward position should be played,that was worth the entrance fee alone.

Dublin footballers as per usual getting well hyped up but Silver you must concede that Kildare are the most over hyped team in the last 5 years.They have managed to beat none of the top ranked teams in the championship but then according to there supporters have been victim of some misfortune or another.Time to dispatch your man back to Armagh and maybe bring in Glen Ryan a man who had a passion for his county jersey and might get something out of a team that gave up in a blink of an eye against the DUBS.

By purpose I entirely agree with everything you said, the Geezer guy seems to have built up a cult following among the twenty something supporters who can't see the wood for the trees.

I heard McGeeney gave Kildare a heavy session before they left for the match.

Must have been in O'Rourkes pub in Newbridge, gantoo7, and I guess they were in Powrs close boy........I think Limerick your a lady will be the bet on Sunday, Corks corner back a huge loss.......JBM v John Allen......Limerick abu............

The GAA ‏@officialgaa 5h
Round 4 (neutral venue): Galway/Armagh v Cork, Wexford/Laois v Donegal/Monaghan, Kildare/Tyrone v Meath, Derry/Cavan v Mayo/London #GAA

8/11 Tyrone V 7/4 Kildare

Tyrone look worthy favourites??

Where were Tyrone 8/11?

Armagh should have saved some of those scores for this evenin!

There was about 3k matched on here from 1.78 to 1.72,obviously that is before commission tho.
They were 1.73  about ten mins before the game.
Apologies if the fractional odds implied fixed odds betting.

I'd be surprised if there is 30 on the pitch at 70 minutes,some tight field too.

Kildare No 3 a right chancer  . Can the refs not see .

It's a scandalous display by Kildare.

Their shooting is awful and distribution no better.

The one not insignificant consolation is that if this continues for another half, they will finally be rid of McGeeney.

This is a little bit more like it.

Niall Kelly is a serious operator,Kildare were often a second half team in qualifiers,Tyrone were matched @ 1.1
Socking penalty by O'Neil-perfect height for keeper

You're right kelly he's consistently fouling O'Neill.

Justice rules .  Tight match though , extra man might swing it now for Tyrone .  Better match this half than first .

He should have been substituted 10 mins.ago,was always going to happen.I preferred the first half.

Some good football first half from Tyrone OK , but Kildare were putrid in the first half .

I am financially biased.Tyrone looked in big trouble, didn't score for nearly 20 minutes.Did you get involved in the ashes??

lol at the clown at the end putting the sideline ball over the bar. Kicked wide after wide during the game and with a point the last thing required with time up he calmly slots it over the bar with his right leg from the right hand side. You couldn't script it

The Cavan man was it-Seanie Johnstone??(not sure),he wasn't on too long.Surely Geezers last game at the helm.

Spillane will put in the knife

that last point cost a friend of mine 2k.he has a grand on ty-2...hes on hols.texted me at end..some sickner for him really

I wouldn't mins but he had 2 attempts. The Ref blew up the first one which was a balls of a shot going nowhere to dole out 2 more pointless yellow cards. Having been given a second go he pointed it calmly !!

Had Kildare +3 in the game,was like winning the lotto with that last point,but what the hell was the lad at?? Was he involved on the hcp too

Great to see Galway football back on the map...watch out Cork
